Monet tuntemistani kristityist\u00e4 ovat kyll\u00e4styneet kastekeskusteluihin. Tai pit\u00e4isik\u00f6 sanoa v\u00e4ittelyihin tai riitoihin. Eik\u00e4 ihme, itsekin olen monet kerrat p\u00e4\u00e4ssyt siit\u00e4 sanomaan Ainoan Oikean Mielipiteeni ja kauhistelemaan toisten v\u00e4\u00e4ri\u00e4 n\u00e4kemyksi\u00e4.<\/p>\n
Toinen samankaltainen keskustelunaihe koskee ehtoollista. Sit\u00e4 ei ehk\u00e4 k\u00e4yd\u00e4 yht\u00e4 kiivaana, mutta se n\u00e4kyy seurakuntien k\u00e4yt\u00e4nn\u00f6iss\u00e4, kuka saa osallistua ehtoolliselle ja kuka ei.<\/p>\n
Molemmat aiheet, kuten lukemattomat muutkin kiistat uskon sis\u00e4ll\u00f6st\u00e4 tuntuvat loppujen lopuksi aika hassuiltakin. Kasteen ja ehtoollisenhan pit\u00e4isi nimenomaan yhdist\u00e4\u00e4 meit\u00e4, ei erottaa.<\/p>\n
Mutta samalla on todettava, ett\u00e4 kyse on vaikeasta asiasta. Jokaisella meist\u00e4 on mielipide ja uskomme Jumalankin asiasta jotakin sanoneen. Pit\u00e4isik\u00f6 siis s\u00e4ilytt\u00e4\u00e4 mielummin rauha ja yhteys vai pit\u00e4\u00e4 kiinni v\u00e4lirikonkin uhalla oikean opin n\u00e4kemyksest\u00e4mme.<\/p>\n
Totuus on tuolla jossakin.<\/p>\n
